Renata Stein
much of my work in recent years has been exploring the Hebrew Bible’s hidden meaning, in part to counterbalance the excesses committed by a seemingly growing number of fundamentalist Bible thumpers of all denominations who insist that their narrow and very literal interpretation of the biblical narrative (and the world) is the only valid view. Judaism has always encouraged Jews— particularly those of the male persuasion— to engage with its sacred texts and give them new meaning in every generation.

Linda Zisquit
In this personal essay, the author recounts her experience as a new immigrant to Israel in 1978, when she began to learn Hebrew. Since then, Zisquit's work on two women poets, Yona Wallach and Rivka Miriam, has been central to her life as an Israeli, and has influenced her own poetic practice and creativity. The essay includes several poems by each of Wallach and Miriam, with Zisquit's translations and detailed account of the problems they posed for her as a translator.

Borbála Szabó, Vera Szabó
This article is made up of excerpts from a diary kept by a Hungarian Jew, Borbála Szabó, in 1944 and 1945. These diary entries describe the last days of World War II in Budapest, and show the interior life of a surprisingly strong and mature young woman. The introduction, by translator Vera Szabó, explains the circumstances in which this remarkable document came to light in Hungary, and describes Szabó's post-war life.

Toby Axelrod
The author describes the process of translating two texts: Elisa Klapheck's biography of Regina Jonas, the first woman rabbi, and Jonas' 1930 treatise, "Can Women Serve as Rabbis?" Axelrod describes her growing appreciation of Jonas' ideas and arguments, and finds much in them that is useful to contemporary religious feminists.
